9am-12pm at Skyline

1pm-4pm at the stadium at Longmont High

6pm-9pm at the stadium at Longmont High

 

This will include a special performance for parents to show off everything the students have worked on in band camp.  It will also include explanations about the concept for our field show and the world of competitive marching band.

 

Our show is entitled “Stonehenge” and is based around the phenomenon and the seasons.  Each movement of music is named for one of the seasons of the year.

 

Needs

 

The band is need of help with some things.  We need a small generator to be able to plug in electronic pit equipment during the show.  We also need parent help to fit and assign uniforms during the evening rehearsal on August 26th, from 6pm-9pm.  In keeping with the theme of our show, we will need 6 large props representing the pillars of Stonehenge.  If you have any artistic talent or building talent to help out, we need you! Please send an email to skylinehs.band@gmail.com if you can help out with any of these things.  The band has also run concession stands at the football games to help with fund raising.  More information will be given to you as it becomes available.

 

The band staff would like to tell all the parents how proud we are of their students. Their hard work and dedication will make for a spectacular year.
